Another interesting chapter, especially that I think Kirkbride implies Anu, Nir and Padomay could be  originally (relativelly) "normal" people/beings, before Anu attained CHIM, and then Amaranth, and replicated himself, his brother and Nir in his dream/creation, as cosmic beings.

Although other interpretation think Padomay is not as much Anu's sibling, as his second personality, which why he remade him in his dream. This is suggested with Padomay being called Anu's "Other".
Anu encompassed, and encompasses, all things. So that he might know himself he created Anuiel, his soul and the soul of all things. Anuiel, as all souls, was given to self-reflection, and for this he needed to differentiate between his forms, attributes, and intellects. Thus was born Sithis, who was the sum of all the limitations Anuiel would utilize to ponder himself. - The Monomyth, Heart of the World.

With Boethiah though, she/he is though by some to have been originally female, and that Boethiah male form, is the form of Trinimac she/he stole, when she mantled him, leaving Trinimac as Malacath - the form meant to reflect Trinimac's innee ugliness, and punishment for killing Lorkhan, as well as spreading slander about him.

Although making this more complex, many think Boethiah started out as Trinimac's daughter/child, the embodiment of his sin and guilt for - again, Boethiah embodies "deceit, conspiracy, secret plots of murder, assassination, treason, and unlawful overthrow of authority" - basically the list of Trinimac's crimes against Lorkhan. The connected concepts of guilt and and sin were personalized as feminine - as seen for example in paradise lost, were Lucifer "daughter" - Sin - is female - and I think Boethiah might be in part inspured by the character of Sin from Paradise Lost.

This is kinda implied directly in the Orcish text "Mauloch, Orc-Father"Trinimac, enraged by his failure, was reborn in blood as he sliced open his own chest, tearing the shame from his spirit., as discussed here.

Dibella is actually suggested to be more complex - Moth priests were probably originally conneted to her (she is the goddess of Moths), as well as in concewuence The Elder Scrolls - and her artifact the Brush of Truepaint is riduculeslly powerfull, being able to create, life, realities all the artist can do.

This is further visible in Shor, son of Shor, were Tsun seemingly taking Dibella to rape her, when she acted as the voice of reason, was to symbolize how it was forgotted she is much more than a goddess of physical desires, and function being goven over to Jhunal/Julianos. Although Tsun didn't rape, he changed his mind, and changed into Trinimac, leaving Stuhn VERY confused.

"And then Shor walked away from his War-Wife to enter the cave that led to the Underworld. He needed to take counsel with his father yet again. "Our chieftain loses heart," Dibella said, Bed-Wife of Shor, hefting another body onto the corpse pile some of us were making, "And so goes to the speak to one that has none anymore. Mirrors, indeed, and in that I see no logic."

"Tsun took her by the hair, for he was angered by her words and heavy with lust. He was a berserker despite his high station, and love followed battle to his kind. "You weren't made for that kind of thinking," Stuhn said, dragging Dibella towards a whaleskin tent, "Jhunal was. And no one should be speaking to him now." Tsun eyed the Clever Man who had heard him. "Logic is dangerous in these days, in this place. To live in Skyrim is to change your mind ten times a day lest it freeze to death. And we can have none of that now."
.............................................
Trinimac left Dibella in his tent as we assembled, and he had not touched her, frozen in the manner of the Nords when we are unsure of our true place, and asked his brother to rearm him. Stuhn was confused for a moment, thinking this an odd shift,

This suggests Dibella has some connection to the concept of oogic.

Further, the text on the Magna-Ge pantheon, list an Magna-Ge called "Daubella"
www.imperial-library.info/cont…
Daubella (Blend Sign) – The youngest (or oldest) of the Blend Signs and the one most likely given to aid newcomers because of it, Daubella is more of a concept than a Color proper. It should be known that this assertion has come under attack by the fault-philosophers of the Magne-Ge. Some say that Daubella is the most important constellation of all, at least for now; that her issue includes Grey Could, Mud That Might, and the Non-Nymic That Helps. Others declare that the Magne-Ge lay under a spell of Daubella’s own invention, with her true role being merely another avatar of Nana Null.

Nana Null seems to be the Magna-Ge name for Nir/Nirn (she is the "Nana" - mother/nanny - of "Nulls" - mortals). Daubella's issue - "Grey Could" - is the synonym for the "Grey Maybe" - meaning Nirn itself.

Although in this picture:

seeing the file tile by Kirkbride - KMD - Kyne Mara Dibella, and the picture being tagged "KyneMaraDib"
it seemss Mara over ver whose pregant belly are the moons - but curiouslly, Dibella has the head of a dragon - wears a skull of one - and is the most menacing figure of the three.

Although Lady Nerevar, when going over details, describes the middle figure as Dibella:
www.imperial-library.info/cont…

Far easier to find was the recent depiction of the pre-Nordic versions of Kyne, Dibella, and Mara, alien, half-giant, half-dragon, and always in those days pregnant, the days of which were Atmoran, when things were different. Booyah. It has also been into the hands of the courier. 

The figure of the left though, is obviously yne/Kynareth though...

This would though explain why Dibella isn't named in Altmer mythos seemingly - if she's Nir/Nirn...
